How to find us

By train

York has a wonderfully compact city centre and so there is no need to bring your car. The city is well served by rail links being around 2 hours away from London and 2.5 hours from Edinburgh.

The hotel is less than a mile's walk or 5 minute taxi drive from York Train Station. We will happily provide some straightforward instructions on how to get to us.

By plane

The nearest airport is Leeds/Bradford which is around a £50 taxi journey away, or you can get a shuttle across to Leeds train station. Manchester and London airports are all conveniently linked to York by rail.

By automobile

If you come by car, the best route to approach the hotel is via the A1079 Hull Road, on the East of the city. You can access this road from the the North or South bound A64 outer ring road and it is signed 'York Hull 1079'. When you have exited the A64, at the traffic lights/roundabout you will need to take the A1079 York road. If you approach from the A64 South you will need to stay in the left lane and turn left and if you approach from the A64 North you will need to stay right and turn right.

Once you have picked up the A1079 York road, you just need to continue straight into the city centre and you will eventually see the city walls and Walmgate Bar at some traffic lights ahead. You will need to be in the right hand lane in order to cross straight over the intersection and through the City Walls into Walmgate. From here, St Denys Road is the 4th road on the left, and the hotel is situated on the left opposite the church. The drop off/pick up area is to the right of the hotel.

If you approach from any other direction, please be aware that St Denys Road itself is one way and accessible only from Walmgate. Also please be aware there are no left/right turns from the inner ring road through the bar walls into Walmgate and so you must approach from the A1079 straight ahead. If you miss this approach you can still access Walmgate via Navigation Road (almost opposite Waitrose) or alternatively by passing the York Central Travelodge on Piccadilly. If you use satnav, our postcode is YO1 9QD.
